第076句:工农业效率
Furthermore, it is obvious that the strength of a country s economy is directly bound up with the efficiency of its agriculture and industry, and that this in turn rests upon the efforts of scientists and technologists of all kinds.
译文:再者,显而易见的是,一个国家的经济实力与其工农业效率直接相关,而效率的提高则有赖于各类科学家和技术专家的努力。
点睛:
该句中it是句子的形式主语,真正的主语是两个由that引导的并列的主语从句。第二个逗号后的this指代的是第一个主语从句中的the efficiency of its agriculture and industry.be bound up with意为“与…紧密相关”。in tum此处意为“反之,反过来”。rest upon意为“依赖于”。
